After seeing the internal email from the Intelligence Supervisor, the Black Supervisor's already dark face turned even darker.
Inessa and the others were completely wiped out?
Unlike other netizens, when the Black Supervisor saw the live footage filmed by restaurant customers on their phones, what came to his mind wasn't whether Richard was handsome or not, but that Inessa and the others had fallen into a trap carefully prepared by "Crimson Manor".
Although only Richard and Sabretooth appeared to be involved in the video, the Black Supervisor still first suspected "Crimson Manor".
As for why the other mutants from Crimson Manor didn't make a move, that wasn't important.
What was important was that Richard, as a member of Crimson Manor, had killed Inessa and the others.
After watching these videos with a cold expression, the Black Supervisor immediately picked up the phone on his desk and dialed the Intelligence Supervisor's internal number.
"Contact the websites and have them delete these videos, now, immediately!"
The Black Supervisor said in a serious tone.
Although they were both department supervisors, the authority and status of the Action Department Supervisor were clearly much higher than that of the Intelligence Supervisor.
Hearing the Black Supervisor's words, the Intelligence Supervisor on the other end of the phone immediately replied, "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to contact the websites right away."
After contacting the Intelligence Supervisor, the Black Supervisor hung up the phone and dialed a second internal number.
"Notify Team One and Team Two, tell them to come to the conference room immediately."
After speaking, without waiting for a reply from the person on the other end of the phone, the Black Supervisor hung up and got up to walk towards the conference room.
A few minutes later.
Action Department conference room.
More than a dozen Mutant Agents from the Action Department sat on either side of the long table, looking silently at the Black Supervisor sitting at the head of the table.
Under everyone's gaze, the burly Black Supervisor said with a serious expression:
"Inessa and the other two are dead, killed by Richard Wesley!"
After speaking, the Black Supervisor had his secretary play the explosive videos that the Intelligence Department had downloaded from the internet.
Although the videos were not long, less than a minute each.
But after watching these videos, the Mutant Agents in the conference room all showed solemn expressions.
As colleagues from the same department, they knew very well what kind of strength Inessa and the other two possessed.
If Slater and Bourne were killed, they wouldn't be particularly surprised.
Because Slater and Bourne's strength wasn't very strong to begin with, and their Superpowers were just common Super Strength, Super Constitution, and Healing Factor.
But for Inessa, who possessed Repel, Flash, and Mental Charm, to also be killed, and by a mutant who had only awakened his Superpower a few days ago, was somewhat unacceptable.
Although Inessa had a somewhat unpleasant personality, it couldn't be denied that she did possess considerable strength.
Otherwise, her combat power wouldn't be ranked in the top five in the Action Department.
However, now, Inessa was easily killed by Richard, just like an ordinary person.
This was a difficult thing for the Mutant Agents in the conference room to accept.
If even Inessa couldn't last long in front of Richard, then they would only perform even worse when facing him.
"Is there a problem with the intelligence? From the performance in the video, Richard Wesley doesn't look like he just awakened his Superpower."
After watching the video, Belt, the leader of Team Two, quickly said.
"Richard Wesley didn't awaken his Superpower; his father said so himself. I don't think his father could lie in front of the interrogation personnel of the Intelligence Department."
Before the Black Supervisor could answer, the voice of Aiden, the leader of Team One, sounded.
Although they were colleagues in the same department, the relationship between Aiden and Belt was not good.
On one hand, it was because there was direct competition between Team One and Team Two.
On the other hand, it was because their Superpowers were inherently incompatible.
Aiden possessed the ability to manipulate fire, while Belt possessed the Superpower of Low-Temperature Generation and Freeze.
One fire, one ice!
Although awakening a certain type of Superpower had nothing to do with personality, it was normal for them to dislike each other given their completely opposite Superpowers.
"The intelligence provided by the Intelligence Department won't be wrong. This Richard Wesley must have awakened his Superpower in the past few days."
"From his performance in the video, the katana he summoned isn't just any ordinary katana, and he also displayed the abilities of Flash and releasing Energy Blades."
"More importantly, he easily defeated Inessa!"
"Now, I have reason to suspect he is a Level 4 Mutant, so I have decided to issue an A-level Wanted Order for him!"
A-level Wanted Order? Hearing the Black Supervisor's words, Aiden and the others showed surprised expressions.
Although an A-level Wanted Order was not the highest level of wanted order for mutant criminals, those for whom the Department of Mutant Affairs issued an A-level Wanted Order were, without exception, famous and powerful mutants.
In the eyes of Aiden and the others, issuing an A-level Wanted Order for Richard was a bit of an overreaction.
It wasn't that there had never been cases of agents being killed in the Department of Mutant Affairs, but generally speaking, issuing a B-level Wanted Order was more than sufficient.
Unless it was confirmed that the other party possessed strength far exceeding that of ordinary mutants, or had committed crimes of an extremely heinous nature.
Otherwise, an A-level Wanted Order wouldn't typically be issued.
After all, this is a wanted order second only to the S-level.
Currently, the Department of Mutant Affairs has only issued one S-level Wanted Order, and that was for Magneto.
The Black Supervisor ignored the surprise of Aiden and the others and continued:
"To prevent another incident of department agents being killed, this time, Team One and Team Two will act simultaneously."
"Whether it's Richard Wesley, Sabretooth Victor, or the woman with Sabretooth and the others from Crimson Manor, bring them all back!"
"If anyone resists, kill them all!"
"I want those unregistered mutants outside to know that resisting the Department of Mutant Affairs is a death sentence!"
The Black Supervisor stood up, his expression cold as he scanned everyone in the meeting room.
"Yes, sir!"
Upon hearing the Black Supervisor's words, Aiden, Belt, and the others quickly replied.
Outskirts of Los Angeles.
An ordinary RV camp with not many tourists.
In the outskirts of Los Angeles, there are many RV camps.
Just the ones the original body knew of numbered over a dozen or twenty.
Although he knew of many RV camps, Richard didn't choose the popular ones, but specifically picked a camp with few tourists.
At this time, he didn't know that the fight between him and Inessa's group had been filmed by a restaurant customer and uploaded online, nor did he know that he had caused quite a stir online, let alone that he now had an A-level Wanted Order on him.
After parking the RV in a corner of the camp, he left the camp without a word and went to the nearby forest.
After confirming that there was no one else around, he summoned the Masamune from his System Space.
"Octaslash proficiency +1"
"Octaslash proficiency +1"
"Octaslash proficiency +1"
Without any hesitation, he immediately began practicing Octaslash.
Before long, he had exhausted the Magic Power in his body.
[Skill: Octaslash (Level 1, 36/100)]
After glancing at the current proficiency of Octaslash, he began to browse the "Repel" Superpower he had Plundered from Inessa.
[Repel: Beta-level Superpower, can repel any object, including but not limited to solids, liquids, gases, energy, etc.]
Like the "Plunder" ability, the system's explanation for the "Repel" energy was just a short sentence.
Although the content wasn't much, it was enough for him to know what kind of ability it was.
From Inessa's performance, when she repelled the Masamune's slash in the restaurant, she directly repelled the Masamune itself.
And the shockwave she released outside the restaurant was by solidifying and compressing the air in front of her, and then repelling the compressed air as a shockwave.
As for why she couldn't repel Octaslash later, Richard guessed it was because Octaslash used Magic Power.
Although the system's description stated that "Repel" could repel any object, just by looking at the level of "Repel," one could know that "Repel" had a limit.
If an attack exceeded the limit of "Repel," such as Octaslash cast using Magic Power, it could be immune, or rather, hit Inessa before being repelled.
From its actual effect, "Repel" is a very good Superpower.
But unfortunately, "Repel" is only a Beta-level ability.
If it didn't Plunder a Superpower of the same type as "Repel," the limit of Repel wouldn't be particularly high.
